Matias Posted January 29, 2012 at 04:47 PM Posted January 29, 2012 at 04:47 PM I don't post here very often anymore, because of this reason, but I feel compelled to say some things that I'm sure I've said before a million times because this is my HERO (and not just me, even some of you debbie downers) you are disrespecting. Yes we are all entitled to an opinion- that is the function of a forum, but COME ON. Don't disrespect her like this. She left home and her children to an unknown place and took a risk at this festival and made history, sang her heart out, yes SANG, danced her little short skirted booty off, in the heat and humidity when all she was probably thinking about was her babies, wore herself out then flew home. Would you have the strength and drive to do that? Would you put everything aside and give your all? She doesn't have to do any of this. The reason she is a legend is because she works for it. Hard. There are a million lessons we can learn from her perseverance. I really couldn't do it. It's amazing how much she gives and gives and unbelievable how much you complain and complain. Be grateful!!! Be careful of what you say, because she reads these forums. I'd hate for her to read what you've written because truly, most of us appreciate all of her hard work and SINGING that she does. I really dont care if you make fun of me or rip me apart bc it's really predictable andddd lame. I'd rather you take out your negativity on me than her anyway. I see what you mean, I love her too, and I hate writing about her in a negative way, because I ALWAYS defend her no matter what, but this show was the worst I've ever seen (I am focusing in Celine the performer that's all)Yes she is a mom, yes the humidity there must be crazy, the jetlag, the woman is human!But if you don't want to leave the kids alone, or are worry about your voice, don't do a show!!! I think is worst to do a show in the conditions she did it that cancel it! I don't know, we ALL now she is capable of more, even using playback, she didn't want to be there, that's all...and I think about the fans Quote http://24.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_maic6m257V1rbfceqo2_250.gif"No no, put it back..."
Matias Posted January 29, 2012 at 04:49 PM Posted January 29, 2012 at 04:49 PM Shoot me now! I think some fans need to clean their ears and change their playback tapes because it is getting really old. Yes, there is a lot of negativity lately on this forum. But maybe there is a good reason for it. If Celine delivers, none of us would be posting all these negative things. I'll be the first to praise Celine if she really deserves it. Unfortunately she did not deliver at this festival. Edit: You are 100% right, Alex. I am not complaining about the palyback, I never did, but if you do it, do it right and show a little happiness on stage...Celine looks off all the way...

Timster Posted January 29, 2012 at 04:49 PM Posted January 29, 2012 at 04:49 PM Isn't it possibly, or even likely, that when she made that signal to the audio technicians they turned on the pre-recorded vocals? I'm sure some artists don't feel comfortable continuing when they loose audio. Unfortunately for Celine, instead of just moving her lips when she lost audio and they turned on the backing, she kept singing . . . making it sound fake. Or maybe the backing track was on the whole time. Those pre-recorded vocals were brought to Jamaica intentionally. They didn't bring that track "just in case". It was on the whole time, but not at full volume, Celine appeared to be singing live over the top throughout. Unfortunately, it seems Celine couldn't hear it. Obviously she managed the verses & choruses ok, but when it came to the awkward adlibs at the end, she had no idea what she was supposed to be singing, so she ended up singing it differently to the track which was still playing quietly in the background.

This only comes across as bragging, not based on fact or anything constructive. I don't think Celine lips every number in Vegas. Au contraire. But she definitely does some.

We know she can STILL sing (be thankful your not a Whitney Houston Fan) and if lipping some tracks during a live event 'preserves' her vocals. Then do it. Enough of the bitching until y'all get up there and do it for as long as she can. It's laughable now that some still go on about it. MAJORITY OF US DOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOONT CARE!

dj4celine Posted January 29, 2012 at 04:51 PM Posted January 29, 2012 at 04:51 PM Funny thing is that people who are complaining here are also fans. It's our love and devotion to this woman that makes us wonder if she even respects the fact that we are the ones who are spending the money on her and it is us, who made her famous. But it seems that she's losing the legitimate devotion and it shows in her public image, where she is seen more as a mother and a Vegas legend than the musical icon that once ruled the industry. If this is how she repays her loyal fans, especially in a country where it is known that she deeply loved, then I'm sorry but I have lost total respect for her. Quote
Tyler1991 Posted January 29, 2012 at 04:51 PM Posted January 29, 2012 at 04:51 PM I get even more upset about it when I watch the videos of WDMHBN, TPOL, and a few others....generally speaking, we get loud cheers for BYLM, and maybe a few people singing along in parts of that song and in the chorus of ABM, but NEVER do we get people singing the choruses of WDMHBN or TPOL. I really thought it was AMAZING to see a crowd so excited by these songs that they're singing along to them, and it's embarrassing that they're singing more than she is. I absolutely love the outfits though. They're her best yet in ALL her years of performing IMO. She looks hot in them! The setlist is an improvement on the Vegas one, but it's nothing to cream your jeans over. I like the changes she made to the IA Remix (in comparison to the way she sang it on tour), but sorry Edwin, this remix has never done it for me! Not a fan of it. I much rather would have seen A New Day Has Come, or That's The Way It Is, but being honest and realistic, I'll take what I can get, and in this case IA remix is miles better than Lullaby. Quote

OHHHHHHHHH yes, that's right, because doing so would cause a slight problem for her as MOST people do care. Seriously now, don't act like nobody cares. It's pure ignorance. We all hear the bashings of Britney and a few other notorious lip-syncers in the industry. Celine would get the same sort of reception if hers wasn't as well hidden as it was. It shows that people do in fact care. And for many, to spend a thousand bucks on a plane, a thousand bucks on a hotel, a couple hundred on tickets, a couple hundred on food and such.....that's a hell of a lot of money to spend on someone who isn't even doing their part. People should be getting for what you pay for. It's the most basic principle of mother f***inig nature. How people do not understand something so basic is beyond me. Did your parents not raise you with principles such as honesty, integrity, and doing to others what you would expect for yourself? The deception involved is just horrible. When I pay you for something, I expect you to do what I pay you for. For instance, if you pay a lawyer to defend you in trial, and he takes the money and decides not to show up in trial at all, wouldn't you be pissed? I know she's standing there, but her VOICE sure as hell didn't show up. And please, don't even use Whitney or Mariah as examples. Mariah has sang a whopping 200 shows in her 20 year career, Celine sang that many in the year 2004, and also the year 2005 if I am correct. Mariah lost her voice because of vocal nodules, and Whitney due to drugs (she has sang about 500 shows). It has nothing to do with overuse (well of the vocals anyway, I suppose whitney's problem comes down to overuse of another kind lol). Oh, and to try to deny me of my opinion (by saying enough of the bitching) simply because I haven't done it for as long as she has.... dear lord, this makes absolutely no sense! I am the fan, and she is the performer for a reason. Does it look like Patti Labelle, Barbra Streisand, Aretha Franklin, Etta James, Diana Ross, Tina Turner, and others are simply waiting for there fans to get up on stage and do it for as long as them? HELL NO, they're true performers, who like Claudette said, are PROUD of the songs they have recorded and perform them flaws and all.... this is why Celine deserves no legacy anywhere within a mile of those women, they are the true LEGENDS.

Tyler1991 Posted January 29, 2012 at 05:24 PM Posted January 29, 2012 at 05:24 PM (edited) And I know this next comment will probably get me in trouble, but I'm sorry, I just can't resist. So I just won't say any names. But for the one who has seen the show dozens of times, if you really can't tell she is lipping after dozens of times, then get your ears checked because it's obvious you have some sort of problem whether it's with false delusions or your hearing. I'm not saying that everyone who thinks she sings live has a problem or is delusional, because there are many people who honestly do not know, and genuinely think she is. They feel this because they have not seen her youtube videos much, have not looked into it, and just accept it as being live. With Celine being a "vocalist" type of performer, they have no reason to think anything other than that. But for those who have seen hundreds or even thousands of videos, and seen her 20 times or whatever it may be, there is no reason to deny it. Lol Anyway, I'm gonna call my ranting to an end for awhile. I got a lot of homework to do and that's obviously more important than posting about dishonesty.

Shaun Posted January 29, 2012 at 05:31 PM Posted January 29, 2012 at 05:31 PM I say fair enough to those who accept Celine lipsynchs and that it does not bother them. If it doesn't bother you then fair enough, I respect that. It should also be respected though that it does bother some people. Not so much that she does it but the lengths they go to to hide it. At least Britney lips along to her actual album tracks on tour. She couldn't make it anymore obvious that she lips. Celine's team though have recorded, edited, re-recorded backing tracks for Celine to lip to over the years. They delay DVD's because of it, re-edit movies because of it and the precious tapes with the backing tracks on them go everywhere with them. This hurts more than the actual lipping to me - the lengths they go to to cover it up. Let's be honest here, the saddest thing of all is that we finally got Celine outside Vegas to do something different and fresh, something many of us have wanted for years, and it's turned into the same old debate once again. That, however, is not our fault. Quote Bringing you the world's only Celine Dion podcast show since 2014.Find us on Soundcloud, Apple Podcasts, Spotify & Amazon Music.

Javito Posted January 29, 2012 at 05:42 PM Posted January 29, 2012 at 05:42 PM (edited) One thing I don't get though is why every single song has to have the highest notes possible all the time. I rather have her lower the notes and do it all live. Besides it will bring a better feel to her concerts. What good does it do to have those hights if ever single song is like that? Then there's no neuances. All high. And all that leaves you with is a headache and soar ears and emotional turmoil. /fred Bingo! From 2005 to the present date, its all about doing the high notes constantly in every song. She became obsessed with belting them!. What was an exciting moment in All By Myself, waiting to hear the high note in "anymore", has become a permanent feature adding high notes in every song even in part where there shouldnt be any. I too feel tired in my ears after hearing so many of these "invented" high notes, especially in the final part of the TCWT where you get a full demonstration with IA/Soul Medley/Queen Medley/LCMM/RDMH all in a roll one after the other. Totally agree that the high notes are much more appreciated when she does fewer of them than constantly throughout all the song, like she does in LCMM since Vegas for example I don't post here very often anymore, because of this reason, but I feel compelled to say some things that I'm sure I've said before a million times because this is my HERO (and not just me, even some of you debbie downers) you are disrespecting. Yes we are all entitled to an opinion- that is the function of a forum, but COME ON. Don't disrespect her like this. She left home and her children to an unknown place and took a risk at this festival and made history, sang her heart out, yes SANG, danced her little short skirted booty off, in the heat and humidity when all she was probably thinking about was her babies, wore herself out then flew home.

Come on Lindsey, you're saying it as if she went to war :rolleyes: Participating in this music festival should have been an honour, something to feel proud and even more if its the first time you go in your career to sing in that place. But lately she uses to rush every visit she does to perform, one-day trip, there and back again, as if it was more a compromise than a pleasure invitation. When things are rushed this way, that's what we've got in the show, a disconnected Céline, especially in THLAL where she kept strolling from one side to another of the stage like a lion in a cage Couldn't they have prepared a small choreography for once? Is that much to ask for one song? Blame it to the jetlag or whatever you want, but if you only care about the Vegas residency and no longuer care to give out the best of you when you go to a show where the world is anxiously awaiting to see you, maybe she'd better stay in the Colosseum inside her comfort zone. Of course you're right we should feel grateful for her to do these rare participations outside Las Vegas, but is exactly because of that, that we demand an extra from her. Not every fan can afford to see her in the Colosseum in the other corner of the world (glad for you that see her many nights!), so we had much anticipation for this ocassion to see her in a event which was "open" to everybody (problem of the livestream cancelled apart). It's as if our girl was released from her "home" and we could see her sing for once, so we were excited. This was a full concert, we don't know when this will happen again. Probably not until the next tour (if it comes eventually). So coming with a playback for a song that she hadn't sang in 13 years is just unacceptable. Be careful of what you say, because she reads these forums. I'd hate for her to read what you've written because truly, most of us appreciate all of her hard work and SINGING that she does. I HIGHLY doubt that. That is hilarious . I'm afraid she doesn't care about a single word of what we say here and she's totally unaware.

I see your point Lindsey and agree with you, but, being honest, let's face it, the last 100% live concert she did was in 2008 (The Sur Les Plaines DVD). There's nothing wrong with her using playback tracks for some songs, au contraire, it's better for her voice. Right now, her voice is just like it was at the beginning of her latest tour. If she didn't use the playback tracks, it would probably be as nasal as it is in the DVDs of that tour. Don't get me wrong here Lindsey, I agree 90% with you, it's just that playback thing. Just watch a video on YouTube that proofs that she doesn't sing The Power Of Love 100% live anymore, and there's nothing wrong with that.

Seriously, some of your responses are as canned and formulaic as what you're ranting over This is it. My opinion in this moment doesn't compare to the instant feedback that is received at a show (the sing alongs, the ovations). If you want to really state how you feel you should do it a show where your response will be noticed immediately but then how many of you would actually do that? If you want change do something beyond venting behind a screen. Quote

Blame it to the jetlag or whatever you want, but if you only care about the Vegas residency and no longuer care to give out the best of you when you go to a show where the world is anxiously awaiting to see you, maybe she'd better stay in the Colosseum inside her comfort zone. Of course you're right we should feel grateful for her to do these rare participations outside Las Vegas, but is exactly because of that, that we demand an extra from her. Not every fan can afford to see her in the Colosseum in the other corner of the world (glad for you that see her many nights!), so we had much anticipation for this ocassion to see her in a event which was "open" to everybody (problem of the livestream cancelled apart). It's as if our girl was released from her "home" and we could see her sing for once, so we were excited. This was a full concert, we don't know when this will happen again. Probably not until the next tour (if it comes eventually). So coming with a playback for a song that she hadn't sang in 13 years is just unacceptable. I HIGHLY doubt that. That is hilarious . I'm afraid she doesn't care about a single word of what we say here and she's totally unaware. Otherwise, things would be different since the middle run of A New Day... I COULDN'T AGREE MORE!!!

Matias Posted January 29, 2012 at 06:09 PM Posted January 29, 2012 at 06:09 PM If I repeatedly felt the level of disappointment that these victims state I would have left a long time ago and stopped listening and watching footage from shows. Seriously, some of your responses are as canned and formulaic as what you're ranting over This is it. My opinion in this moment doesn't compare to the instant feedback that is received at a show (the sing alongs, the ovations). If you want to really state how you feel you should do it a show where your response will be noticed immediately but then how many of you would actually do that? If you want change do something beyond venting behind a screen. Just because we love her to death it doesn't mean we are deaf or blind, be honest...was it for you an amazing show??? of course peoplel was happy to see Celine!!! who wouldn't!! but I bet she could have a greater ovation if she delivers like we know she can, and I am not talking about the playbacks, I am talking about her presence on stage, she acts like if she doesn't know what on earth is she doing there!

Tyler1991 Posted January 29, 2012 at 06:16 PM Posted January 29, 2012 at 06:16 PM (edited) That's one negative thing I don't understand... I've always felt like she has had a strong stage presence. I don't understand why people think she felt lost, or looked confused or like she didn't want to be there. She seemed less robotic than she did in Vegas, just watch the WDMHBN video, even while she is lipping away the chorus she still is smiling from ear to ear at the crowd singing along. I guess maybe because it's the first LCMM performance that she didn't talk through in about 15 years that people think she doesn't wanna be there, but I didn't see that. More than anything, I'd attribute the fact that she flew in right before, and left right after the concert as reasons why she didn't want to be there, but as far as on stage, her presence was still strong. They say the expectations you have for others are an indication of how high your expectations for yourself is. Just saying...

duri Posted January 29, 2012 at 06:21 PM Posted January 29, 2012 at 06:21 PM We know she use playbacks in some of her songs, and I have no problem with it, Ok some songs are hard to sing so it´s better for her voice, even if I really think that it´s always better if song is live, because only in live singing there is EMOTIONS singer can give to you, it´s about that moment, so if you hear some playback she could not give you emotion, because she gave it when she was singing it originaly, if we wanted to hear playback we can be home and play her CD. I can imagine some people who are on Céline´s show are thinking it´s all live, but if someone is "hard" fan and watching her DVD, videos on youtube many many times and saw some of her shows must know when she singing live and when it ´s playback, but what was big surprise for me was that THLAL was palyback, as it was duet with Diana King, I really thought that at least this song will be 100% live. But thanks for I´m alive it was great. Quote http://www.supermusic.sk/obrazky/80543_Celine%209.jpg
